Poem:
Patavadhrajju bhujamgavadhrajitha vi / bhraamthispurachchukthi va
dhghatavachchamdhra shilajapaakusumaru / ksaamgathyavaththamchu vaa
kpatimalneyrthuru chithsukhambanubhavim / pan leyka dhurmeydhanun
chitukannam dhala poyajuthu radhamul / sreekalahastheeswaraa!
Meaning:
O Lord! Ignorant people make people believe a thread to snake, an oyster to silver, a quartz crystal to precious gem, a red flower to the centre of light. They cannot experience the bliss of eternal joy.
